Fantastic day at the Folk Museum. From Carol Singing, Santa and Christmas cake Christmas pudding and Chestnuts given out to everybody.We had a lovely lunch in the tearoom, bought sweets in the sweetshop and had a lovely walk round the gift shop and bought gifts to take home.We had a very nice time walking round the properties and chatting to the staff and volunteers.Will most definitely be back

If the weather is fine then it would be hard to find a better day out than the Folk Museum. Buildings from all over Ireland are available to view and explore as well as a fully self-contained small village. Farm animals roam the fields and there are plenty of staff - some in character - to explain the exhibits and answer questions. A large tea room with a wide variety of snacks and food is also available. Allow 3hrs minimum to explore this amazing attraction

Loved this place fromI was a child never get bored of it the smell of the turf burning it takes you right back as to how it was many years ago the way it’s laid out just as it was! That much you imagine how life was and how different life was before technology and Social media has ruined the world!

Absolutely awesome place. Few replicas and many original houses to walk through and get a real feel for how life used to be for different people at different times. Great for smaller kids, no reading needed to fully understand. Absolutely stunning landscape as well, so beautiful and made the walk so enjoyable. We were so impressed.Info: Quite a bit of walking needed, to see it all.

We really enjoyed our time at the museum today. It was made really interesting not only with the antiques, houses, shops, and landscape but with the friendly, informative people who worked and lived there! The place is so well kept. The facilities are spotless. The cafe served delicious food at a reasonable price by very friendly staff. We're from Belfast but now live in Sydney. It was years since we visited the museum, and we highly recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely loved this museum. The staff are actors, in character, happy to answer all your questions about how life worked in Ireland in 1910, with original and replica pieces like an 1840 printing press for illustration

I thoroughly enjoyed myself with a group of deaf friends and 2 BSL interpreters. The highlights of the day were willow making, harvest knot and potato picking. The staff and volunteers were very friendly. I would love to see willow craft day at your place so I can join a workshop. Thank you very much for a wonderful day outing.

A local shared about this museum with us and we weren't disappointed. It was amazing, so much Irish history and culture to explore. The staff were all amazing and friendly and knowledgeable too. Got free disabled entry and carer ticket. The cafe served delicious food, a lovely shop and sweet shop too. Could have spent longer than we had there easily. Would definitely return given the opportunity.
